She married her cousin, Abu Sufyan ibn al-Harith, and they had a son, Ja'far. Abu Sufyan was hostile to Islam for a long time. In 630 he told Jumanah that he intended to convert.

She accompanied him on his journey to meet Muhammad at Al-Abwa; but Muhammad refused to see him. They followed Muhammad all the way back to Mecca. After the conquest, Jumanah accompanied some women from the Muttalib clan on a visit to Muhammad. She "softened" him about her husband; but it was only after the Battle of Hunayn that he accepted Abu Sufyan's conversion as genuine. Muhammad gave Jumanah 30 of dates (i.e. about ...
